Wheat futures declined across all three major U.S. exchanges on April 26, 2026, with Chicago SRW dropping 6-7 cents, Kansas City HRW falling 6-12 cents, and Minneapolis spring wheat slipping 1-2 cents. U.S. wheat export commitments reached 24.67 MMT, 15% above last year and matching 101% of USDA projections, aligning with the 5-year average despite the price dip. Russia’s wheat crop was revised down to 90 MMT by IKAR, a 1 MMT reduction, while France’s soft wheat crop quality dropped to 83% Good/Excellent, down 1% from the prior week. Saudi Arabia issued a tender for 710,000 MT of wheat, with bids due April 26, potentially influencing global supply dynamics amid declining crop forecasts. May and July 2026 wheat contracts fell across CBOT, KCBT, and MIAX, with KCBT July futures posting the steepest loss at 11.75 cents.
